Lack of Parking Kills California Planned Parenthood Plans

Planned Parenthood announced that it was canceling plans to open a new clinic in Redwood City, saying the opening wasn’t moving fast enough.

Although the group originally had a deal with a nearby rent-a-car service to provide the nine additional parking spaces the clinic required, anti-choice protesters put endless pressure on Enterprise not to go through with its agreement.

Instead, the California Planned Parenthood decided to open a clinic in San Mateo, where there were less adjustments to the property needed, since it was already a health clinic. Protesters of the Redwood City site said they will now move to San Mateo to protest, despite the fact that the facility will not even be providing abortions.
